Atticus is now available!

 Good news, everyone! This year's first Stablemates Club release, Atticus, is now available to purchase! 









He's the Trad Clydesdale Stallion, shrunken down to Stablemate scale and given a new hairdo. Since this is a split run and the models are "randomly shipped," we won't know if we've gotten a matte or a glossy one until we open the box. I hope everyone gets the finish they want...and if you don't, hopefully it doesn't leave as bad a taste in your mouth as the Everything Bagel ice cream I just tried. (Yuck!)

Woohoo!

 Good news, everyone - the split run for next year's Stablemates Club has been revealed! 







I was right - it's Atticus! So I definitely don't need more than one membership next year. He does look scrumptious in gloss, though...

Anyway, I hope everyone has a happy New Year! Let's hope 2021 is better than 2020 was...


ETA: The December Collector Club Newsletter is out! Check your email for more details, but check out this test silver filigree Duende! 









Mmm, he's pretty...I think I still prefer Benasque's color, though. 

There's a couple other fun articles in the newsletter, including one about the development of Benasque's family, and the last giveaway of the year is for an extra Christoff! Yay! Good luck to everyone that enters!

Stablemates Club sneak peeks!

 Breyer saw fit to show us a couple of upcoming releases for the Stablemates Club - including the final model for this year! Here she is: 









Yeah, that's...gonna be a no from me, unfortunately. Too beefy for my tastes. The color is pretty, though! 










From the blog:

Meet Cassidy, a lovely silver black blanket appaloosa! Although genetically black, Cassisy’s Lp gene (a genetic modifier that results in the “varnish roan” appaloosa pattern) has interacted with her blanket pattern to not only create a loudly spotted white blanket, but has added a “bronzing” effect to her coat as well. This gives her coat a much more brown appearance than the black it genetically is. She is quite a fun foray into the intricacies of equine genetics!

Another silver black, eh? Interesting. Well, she's not my cup of tea, so hopefully I won't have any trouble selling my extras. 

We also got a sneak peek of a release for next year! 

 











His name is Atticus, and in case you couldn't tell, he's the shrunken Clydesdale Stallion. Uh, the optional SMC model for this year is also a Clydesdale Stallion, so why use him again? Sure, he's got a new hairdo, but...well, whatever. I guess they have to recoup their investment costs as soon as they can. His color is nice as well, but I've never been a fan of the Clydesdale Stallion, so I don't feel the need to join the club just yet. Signups open next month, so I'm sure they'll have plenty more to show us by then!
